Welcome to the Q&A Forum

I never use the actual amazon banner ads because they are so bad, I try my best to make it look like a blog and only put images and links with relevant products. I had a buy it now on one product but it didn't seem to work at all. I think I just really need to get up higher and of course I wasn't expecting much with a cheap stuffed animal BUT hopefully I can repeat this success with a higher priced product in a different niche, rank in the top and make a few bucks. I still get a little sad about my adsense but I have heard some really good stuff about Amazon from some seemingly reliable sources. Can't cry over spilled milk though Thanks again and I will post an update if I get up in the top and start seeing some more dough! It's gonna be hard work because most of the other sites are either big chains or pretty decent. All except one which recently came out of nowhere to rank #3. STRANGE THING is that it just has an error page that says Index of with a link to ftp.quota???? I checked it out with open site explorer it has some crazy Page Rank or Authority whatever of 80. I checked some of the backlinks and they were very odd with Arabic writing on them.  Not sure what that site is about or where it came from about a week ago but I couldn't imagine it staying around long and hopefully it will go away and improve my rankings!

Thanks this helps me a lot! I am just going to go ahead and try to build the site as an informative website on the subject. Put some adsense up and see how it goes.

Thank you both! These are great answers and probably true in this case but I guess that would lead me to a secondary question. I have seen questions in here about pages not being crawled with the SEOMOZ Campaign tool. So I hate to now post the question, "why are my pages not being crawled?" But that is the mystery. As soon as I made the new allow all robots text file and submitted it, I checked and instantly my pages were being crawled again. Now nothing again, it just sits at N/A. As well as the traffic dropped off... Confusing. But I am just going to give it awhile to look for overall patterns or maybe it is a glitch with the SEOMOZ tool that just happens to be corresponding with the traffic dips. LOL, I know strange things like this do occur in this business. Thanks and if anyone has anymore ideas I am happy to hear them.  I was worried I had some sort of malware or whatever the hackers do to your site????!!!!
